To celebrate the release of Foxlore AND Coyote Stories on vinyl, we'll be posting a series of lyric videos highlighting songs from both records!

Full Lyrics:

There’s a fire in my brain and I’m burning up
Oh my, oh my
Keep running for the sink but the well is dry
Oh my, oh my
Every word I say is kindling
But the smoke clears when you’re around
Won’t you stay with me, my darling
When my walls start burning down, down, down

This house says my name like an elegy,
Oh my, oh my
Echoing where my ghosts all used to be
Oh my, oh my
There’s still cobwebs in the corners
And the backyard’s full of bones
Won’t you stay with me, my darling
When this house don’t feel like home
When this house don’t feel like home

Ashes, ashes, dust to dust
The devil’s after both of us
Oh, lay my curses all to rest
And make a mercy out of me

This tired old machine is a’ rumbling,
Oh my, oh my
Singing songs to the secrets behind my eye
Oh my, oh my
All my aching bones are trembling
And I may yet fall apart
Won’t you stay with me, my darling
When the war starts in my heart
When the war starts in my heart

Ashes, ashes, dust to dust
The devil’s after both of us
Oh, lay my curses all to rest
And make a mercy out of me

Ashes, ashes, dust to dust
Tell me I am good enough
Oh, lay my curses all to rest
And make a mercy out of...
